A 777rwhp 350z ran 178mph. I'm thinking you'll do 165ish mph if you're a good driver.
I think you guess is a good one but I am hoping its low. I am hoping for a run in the 180 mph range and may turn my boost up slightly to help.

I understand a mile is not as long at these speeds as I may think. I also know that I have out run a 350z with 800 rwhp and dont think HP = HP when you compare the 350 to the 370.....and I have owned both. My additional TQ will make my launch better and help in my overall speed (I hope).

that 777rwhp Z was stroked to 4.24L. It was not a normal 350 (3.5L). No I do not think you will get to 180mph from a standing start without a built block and way higher power numbers. Your power level is way off.
